Morgan, Biddle Sneak into Law’s Top 100

Left-handers Adam Morgan and Jesse Biddle were the only two Phillies in Keith Law’s Top 100 Prospect List (Insider Only) released today. The big surprise? Law ranked Morgan higher than Biddle.

Law ranked Morgan #92, stating:

He’s also shown he can win games with any of those three pitches as his go-to pitch in pitchers’ counts, with impressive feel and command of all three offerings.

and

I see a solid No. 4 starter here very soon with the upside of a good No. 3.

While Law placed Biddle at number 95, having this to say:

Biddle’s stuff will be good enough that he should be a back-end starter even if his command never quite gets to average, but has the potential to be a No. 2 if it develops into a real strength.

and

Biddle is the projection guy to complement fellow lefty Adam Morgan’s higher probability in the Phillies’ system, which has some depth but doesn’t have a lot of guys close to the majors who will make an impact.
